Welcome.
These are some of the attempts at verse that I have made over the years. I trust that they are to the glory of the Lord Jesus - and that putting them here is to His glory too.
I have now posted most that I have written at least once but continue in case a new audience finds new blessing. Occasionally I throw in some other verse.
Comment are welcome.

Be unto us a Rock of habitationTo which we may continually resort;Like hyraxes who relish elevationHere may thy people happily consort;Help us gain honey from the Rock's recessesAnd taste the oil that Thou wouldst have us find,Having our blessing in the God who blessesWith copper in the mountains to be mined.

But may we not forget the Rock was smittenFor us to enjoy the water flowing out;May thoughts of Christ indelibly be writtenUpon the hearts He cleared from sin and doubt.May high-placed and hind-footed singers raiseHymns, through the Chief Musician, to Thy praise.

Among the just, as clothedIn the Best Robe, the righteousnessOf another.With noble footsteps,Beautiful in sandals, givenHeavenly dignity.With that ring, showing,Among the beloved ones, GodSees you as amiable.Your pure mind knownIn that you are decked inA pure turban. Being true sinceYour loins are girdedWith truth.
